dropped a crock pot glass lid onto the glass cooktop cracking the glass
I slid the range out only a couple of inches so I didn't have to detach the downdraft blower connection. Undoing the four #2 square head screws was easy from the under the control panel as well as the three pairs of screws holding the front of the glass cooktop frame. Undoing the two in the rear (one on each side) was a bit of a challenge in that they were in upside down and difficult to see without a mirror. It was easy to drop the screws as they fell never to be seen again. After they were removed the top was easily removed. Reinstalling the back two screws was the most difficult of the entire procedure. I replaced the #2 square head bits with the same size hex head screws. Using a nut driver made the whole process much easier. By the way, the distance between the holes in the rear and the replacement top is 1/8" difference that made lining up the holes a frustrating experience. I ended up using a rattail file to hog out the opening to enlarge the holes. That made the lineup much much more easy.
The oven's lower heating element needed replacement
Watched the video and realized this was something I could do myself...bear in mind I'm not exactly a handyman! Took me about 30min as the oven also needed some cleaning...my tenant definitely needs to use the self-cleaning!
I have to note, although the heating element was covered by Maytag's 10yr limited parts warranty, I decided to purchase from PartSelect since Maytag could not provide a ship date and I couldn't keep my tenant waiting! Supposedly Maytag had the part in stock but their warehouse was behind because of the pandemic...what a lame excuse! Almost a month later, Maytag has yet to ship the part! Needless to say, am very disappointed in Maytag's after sales and warranty program! I get the impression, they just wanted to pressure me to buy the new part!
Lastly, was very pleased and impressed by PartSelect's customer service! Their website was very easy to use, less expensive than buying direct from Maytag and the part was shipped same day! Thank you PartSelect!
Ordered new element from PartSelect. It arrived shortly. It did not match the original. Guy at appliance store explained how I could connect the wires on the new one. It still did not fix the problem. A repair man tried for 2.5 hours to fix it with no success. Now I will return the replacement element in the return envelope provided.
Very Simple, I recommend pulling the old gasket in sections, and popping the new gasket metal holders in the holes as you go. You can't mess it up. For the ends, I tucked them in using a pair of needle nose pliers, but any small slender tool, such as a thin screwdriver, will work.
Remove cover under controls, unscrew rangetop (front only). Motor on right side of oven directly under rangetop detaches with 3 screws and remove with care. Swap foam seal to new motor and install. May require contact cement to attach seal to new part.
Video said to remove screws and lift stove top off, remove contacts and ground. My stove top was hinged and required me to lift and pivot stovetop up. The burners were anchored to the stove base not the top. I secured the topso that it would not drop down and proceeded with repair
There is a good video on YouTube that shows exactly how to replace the bake element. Had mine fixed in 15 to 20 minutes. Saved me about $150 by not having to call repairman.
